day one: kcw oct 2014

It’s finally here! The first day of Kid’s Clothes Week! Are you already knee-deep in fabric scraps? Or are you just starting to print out patterns? Either way it’s just an hour a day every day this week. You can do it!

I mean just look at what these lovely people did already. Adorable undies! bear paw pinafores! And so much more! You can see them (and so many more) in our new and improved project pool. Check in everyday to see what people are making and cheer them on!

While you are there, don’t forgot to officially sign up for KCW! Once you’ve clicked the sign up button you will be automatically entered to win the October 2014 participant giveaway. It’s a STORYBOOK prize package! When I discovered that Teagan White not only wrote and illustrated a beautiful children’s book, but also designed a gorgeous fabric collection for Birch Fabrics, I knew it was meant to be.

One participant will win her ABC book, Adventures with Barefoot Critters. The book follows a cute cast of critters through the seasons and through the alphabet. All the creatures wear gorgeous, detailed clothes in a rich palate of colors. It’s hard to look at this book and not be inspired to make clothes! So along with the book, the winner will get 2 yards of knit fabric from Teagan White’s Acorn Trail line and 2 yards of coordinating solids. You are signed up right?!

And now for the giveaway week winners….The winner of our first giveaway from L’oiseau Fabric is Rene Bolton! Congratulations, Rene you have won a $40 gift certificate to the L’oiseau Fabric shop! Today is the last day to enter Tie Dye Diva giveaway. You can never have too many patterns! So what are you waiting for? Enter to win a pack of three PDF patterns!!
